Jihad Mughniyeh, Military Commanders Killed in Israeli Attack

An
Israeli helicopter fired two missiles at a three-vehicle convoy carrying senior members of
the Lebanese Hezbollah in the Syrian province of Quneitra, near the Golan
Heights, killing Jihad Moghniyeh, Mohamed Ahmed Issa and other senior members
of the Hezbollah, destroying one vehicle and damaging others.

Jihad
Mughniyeh was the son of Imad Mughniyeh, the military commander of the
Hezbollah who was assassinated in 2008 in a car bomb to Israeli foreign
intelligence. He was a rising star within Hezbollah, whose last public visit to Iran was
in September 2013 to attend the funeral of the mother of the Quds Force
Commander Gen. Qasem Soleimani (pictured above.) Issa was a senior Hezbollah military commander and head of its operations in Syria. The deaths of Jihad Mughniyeh and a senior Hezbollah commander are a serious setback for their organizations. The presence
of high-ranking members of the Hezbollah near Golan might signify that they could
have been in planning stages of a major operations against Israel at the border.

good news for Lebanon and Syria . a few less Iranian lackeys working to subvert Lebanon's sovereignty and betraying the Syrian people by helping to kill Syrians in the name of preserving the vile Assad dictatorship

Such a well orchestrated attack by Israel, as normal it shows superior intelligence will produce the best outcome for any military action. And such a great mistake by the other side to let so many high ranking people being taken out so easily. Once again, intelligence leakage is the easiest way of ruining your organization and structure, which seems to be the case with the Lebanese Shia fighting organization. Since 2007 it seems Hezbollah and Syria have not been able to stop these leaks and continuously lost the intelligence war to the other side.
